We consider the problem of finding sufficient conditions for a locally Lipschitz mapping between Finsler manifolds to be a global homeomorphism. For this purpose, we develop the notion of Clarke generalized differential in this context and, using this, we obtain a version of the Hadamard integral condition for invertibility. As consequences, we deduce some global inversion and global injectivity results for Lipschitz mappings on Rn\mathbb{R}^n in terms of spectral conditions of its Clarke generalized differential.
